Description      
Evergreen is a registered national charity founded in 1991. They are a national non-profit environmental organization with a mandate to bring nature to their cities through naturalization projects. Evergreen motivates people to create and sustain healthy, natural outdoor spaces and gives them the practical tools to be successful through its three core programs: Learning Grounds - transforming school grounds, Common Grounds - conserving publicly accessible land, and Home Grounds - for the home landscape. Community naturalization is a collective effort that includes people from all walks of life in the revitalization of their schools, homes or community and, ultimately, in the environmental, social and economic functioning of their cities.
